Joined IBMs Associate program 6 months ago and seem to be on track for early promo based on the convos I'm having. My goal is not to stay in IBM and probably not even consulting long term.

What can I start doing now to set myself for a great exit, into a Top 10 tech firm. MAANG is most ideal (FK Facebook lol) but I would be equally excited for a Shopify, Square or similar.

Appreciate any advice. Located in Canada with BBA from top university and willing to relocate, if that helps!

Can partners comment whether Pwc is having another round of layoffs. This is so scary! Shouldn't they rid of partners who can't sell first?! Or pause hiring? Opp. cost to find and train talent again?

Does anyone know a lawyer that transitioned from big law to consulting? I haven't started big law yet (doing M&A and other corporate work), but I was wondering if it's possible to switch careers. I majored in business during undergrad and am eligible to sit for the CPA exam so I don't think comp skills should be an issue. I've only seen lawyers transition from big law to Big 4 tax departments. If going into big 4 tax is my only option, is it possible to switch from tax to consulting? Thanks

I am leaving retail pharmacy after 15 years. I am opening a 403b pharmacy for a FQHC. I don't believe that retail pharmacy will be able to sustain itself with patient costs skyrocketing. I think people will become enraged or indifferent enough to allow the federal government to take over healthcare. How many times do we see people getting free prescriptions via government coverage that drive better cars than we do?

Hi! I started at a new company 2 months ago and while I’m really enjoying my job so far, I’m having a hard time gauging whether or not I’m doing a “good job.” My role seems to be always evolving, which is fine and I actually enjoy being a support to the greater marketing team, but I feel like I need better defined targets to make sure I’m meeting expectations. Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)

Question about what to do next. I’ve maxed out everything—401k, HSA, IRA, backdoor Roth 401k. My bills are all paid.

My firm’s IT (especially system saving and file locating function) is so bad 😐😞 and they keep doing updates no one asked them for just to mess with the stuff we already got a hang of without doing anything about the issues we actually need fixed. Anyone else in a similar boat? Do you bill the client for the time it takes to fix the IT issue (or IT inefficiency generally, like time taken to find a file in a convoluted system)? Or is that supposed to be our non-billable time?
